TFG on spin glasses

Utilities to simulate spin glasses, created for an undergrad dissertation. Compile the main program with make anneal after running make test to be sure everything's okay. The main code is in the /lib folder, and is called glassy.c.

Raw data from the simulations is also available if wanted or needed, but is terabytes (binary configurations) and gigabytes (parsed csv measures) big, which makes it unsuitable for hosting in GitHub. If you are interested, ask for it at a.clavero.alvarez@protonmail.com.

Requisites

The sofware uses

• C for the annealer program.
• Julia 0.5 for some scripts.
• Python 3 for the plotting facilities (matplotlib and seaborn libraries are extensively used). A custom style has been used for matplotlib, comment the plt.style.use lines or move the provided one in /etc to .config/matplotlib/stylelib to be able to use the same plotting code.

annealer has no dependencies; the Mersenne Twister library that it employs is packaged inside the lib/ folder and automatically linked.

Compilinig the LaTeX file (in Spanish) will require minted and lualatex.

The code has been only tested on Linux systems.

Usage

The main interface to the code is the annealer executable, in the exe folder after doing a make anneal. Just run it with --help to see the usage.

measure takes annealer files as input, and computes a csv with various observables. Use --help to see a brief help message.

In the study_cases folder there are various scripts that can be used to explore some situations or make the plots of the dissertation (folder tex). Of course, they need the original data to work and are displayed here only for reference.
